Yes I agree that this Is an enor- mous lot of soap 115 plus pounds per individual but It is not enough to keep us thoroughly clean. At least not outwardly and inwardly.

The usual thing for a member of the senior class to say is that he is very very sorry that he is finishing. Those who say that never stop to think of what they are really saying for would it not defeat the purpose of this or any other insti- tution if we remained in the school for years and years? That is one reason that I say I am glad that I am finishing; another is that college has been a great disappointment to me in more than one respect. Now that I am through and can look back over the years I do not especially regret having spent four terms here for the associations I ha...

One .said "Are you going to write that column again this year?" And the other said "You're not going to write that column again this year are you?" Just a matter of fine shades of meaning and it left me in a bit of ii spot the obvious thing being that about fifty percent of the people (last year at this time it would have been "fifty per cent of the citizens") are actively opposed to the spoliation (nice word) of a fresh column of news print with such drivel as this is al- most sure to be if you have patience to see it hrough.

Why don't you read the type printed in this column more than you do? One of the most serious problems that have been encountered in.all newspaper offices and especially college news- papers is the;-k of readers of the editorial page.
